Scan the QR code
Each kennel has its own printed code. Scan it with the phone you already carry — no install, no account. The dog's record opens in your browser, ready.

Live, in shelters now
Every tail, tracked.
A quiet, kennel-side companion to your shelter software. Scan a QR code, tap once, move on. Built for the people who actually walk the kennels.
How it works
One scan. One tap. Done.
No new app. No login. No second screen at 6am. The fewest possible steps between you and the next kennel.
Tap one button
Fed. Medicated. Cleaned. Exception. Big buttons, gloves-friendly, designed for a hallway at 6am — not a desk. One tap is the whole interaction.
— moves with you
The morning brief
At 4am, an AI-generated triage list lands in the manager's inbox. What's overdue, what's flagged, what changed overnight. The morning shift knows what's on fire before they walk in.
— while you sleep
Runs on a single PC
One shelter PC, your existing Wi-Fi, no cloud bill. Your data stays on your network. Sits alongside your existing shelter software — doesn't replace it, doesn't fight with it.
— local-first
Free for shelters. Forever.
No tiers, no per-kennel fees, no surprise renewals. TailTrackers is pro bono work — built once, given to the people doing the work, kept running because it should be.
— $0
The live demo
Open the demo in any browser. Scan a kennel, tap a button, watch the morning brief assemble itself. The real thing — same code that runs in production shelters.
About
For the people who walk the kennels.
I'm Matt Price. I built TailTrackers because the people doing the actual work — feeding, medicating, cleaning, noticing — were the ones with the worst tools. Big enterprise shelter platforms are designed for the office. This is designed for the hallway.
It's free, it stays free, and if your shelter wants it, get in touch. I'll help you set it up. More of my other work lives here.
